Rise Of The Dragon Emperor

When Ronan sat with Percy for dinner , his undivided attention was on the food he was eating. Having survived on the streets for a year , Ronan now understood the importance of the meal being served on his plate.

He thanked the gods and only focused on eating while eating , not paying attention to the politics that Percy was explaining to him.

Percy tried his best to tell Ronan about the various power-blocks within the academy and about the general rift between nobles and commoners , as well as how intense the house competition was inside the academy.

Ronan too observed this point , as every table he looked towards had the same colored robed kids sitting together in the mess. Rarely would people wearing a different colored robe be sitting on the same table , but even then it would be either because they were from the same year , or the same noble birth.

Percy explained ” Listen to me well Ronan , we have a special position within this academy , although the academy does not distinguish between students , the students themselves do . Since we are the prince’s of the country of Avalon , no matter how much the academy pushes for equality , in the eyes of the students we would always be special.

Soo never take sides in this academy little brother , never favour a faction and never discriminate . As once the Draco’s start to do it , all hell will break loose? You understand? “.

Ronan slurped a noodle and smiled satisfyingly as he said ” Why would i distinguish one weakling from another brother , you worry too much “._.

Percy usually would let Ronan’s arrogance slide , however he had a feeling that Ronan was developing a complex for weakness and weak people. Although Ronan did not distinguish people from noble birth or common birth , he had his own bias against society which was strength.

This was a huge problem that needed to be nipped in the bud . Percy realized that , hence he said ” Look at that boy sitting over there at the corner Ronan , the one sitting alone and covered in bandages , what do you make of him ? “.

Ronan glanced over at that boy as he observed him for a while , the kid was covered in bandages inscripted with runes he did not have knowledge about as except for his eyes and mouth , every inch of his body was covered in the cloth.

The power level of the kid was only at level 11 , and he was of a frail frame overall. To Ronan the man did not look much , as he said ” Not much , just another weakling , but boy o boy must he have suffered a nasty burn to be covered in soo many bandages eh? “.

Percy smiled at this response , as this was exactly what he was hoping for , as he said ” Alright , then do you think that kid can injure you in battle? “.

Ronan looked interested now , as he seriously contemplated the question , as he said ” Are you serious ? what’s the catch , am i handicapped? “.

Percy shook his head and said ” A fair fight , you can be you “.

Ronan laughed unconsciously ” PFFT… , you can’t be serious right big brother ? Him? “.

Percy looked at Ronan dead serious and replied ” Yeah , him “.

Ronan knew this was no game anymore as he said ” Alright , show me “.

Percy stood up from his dining area , as he walked over to the kid in the corner , as the kid looked visibly stupefied that the first prince of Avalon had came over to his table .

He looked flabbergasted by the looks of it , as he repeatedly tried to deny Percy of the proposal he was making , but in the end he had to accept it. As percy signalled Ronan to follow him to the outside.

Ronan was fired up , he had faith in his own fighting capabilities and was sure that nobody in his age-group could even come close to his combat prowess.

How could they? Ronan had underwent hell to be where he was today , with rigorous training and endless beatings. He had to be a notch above his peers after all that training , or what did he train for?

However , reality was to hit him hard in the face as in a isolated corner of the academy the bandaged kid and Percy waited for Ronan.

Percy looked around and found out that they were indeed alone , as he said ” Ronan , this is my friend Zombie , he will be your opponent today “

Zombie looked visibly shaken as he said ” H..hell..hello ppppprince , i will be under your care today “. , As he bowed to declare his intent for a spar.

Ronan looked coldly towards his opponent , as he did not reciprocate the bow but only took his battle stance.

Zombie looked towards Percy as if to ask , if he was sure that they should do this , as percy nodded in affirmation giving him the go signal.

Zombie then went onto unwrap the bandages covering his arms , as terribly burnt skin revealed itself from under those bandages. However Ronan also felt a sense of danger even standing 20 feet away from zombie as he could feel heat eminanting from those arms.

Percy declared ” This is a first blood match , the first one to injure their opponent and draw blood will be the winner ! , Fight! “.

Ronan instantly charged in towards zombie , whose temperament changed the moment the fight began , taking an odd stance Ronan had never seen before he went on the defensive as he let Ronan strike him first.

Ronan tried to strike zombie in the face , but the latter blocked it with its arm , it was nothing much however their skins did come in contact with one another.

A searing pain shot through Ronan’s arm , as he ignored it to continue with a roundhouse kick to finish zombie . However at that moment Percy loudly declared ” And the winner is ZOMBIE ! “.

Ronan stopped his kick in his tracks as he glared at Percy in anger … what did he mean by the winner is ZOMBIE?Foll𝑜ow current novÊls on nov/3lb((in).(co/m)

It was then that Ronan looked towards his own arm that was burnt and bleeding as he looked shocked and horrified by this phenomenon.

When did he start bleeding , how did this even happen? All sorts of questions plaqued Ronan’s mind as a chilling voice from Percy brought him back to reality.

Percy said ” Too conceited brother , you are not as special as you think you are . Be more humble and LEARN TO RESPECT others , irrespective of their strengths. There is more to a man than just combat prowess. I hope you take today’s LOSS positively “.

Saying so Percy turned to leave , as a shy zombie followed suit. Leaving Ronan Draco alone in a dark corner of the academy with a bleeding arm and a bruised pride.

This was a much needed reality check for the Second Prince of Avalon !
